      FULL STEPS:

      • Configure two Moodle servers as MNet peers
      • Create a user with non-latin or extended characters in any of the following Profile fields:
        • firstname
        • lastname
        • department
        • address
        • description
        • others?
      • Navigate to MNet peer

      WHAT I EXPECTED:

      Successful navigation between MNet peers

      WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:

      Error message:
      Unknown error occurred during negotiation.More information about this error

      We first noticed this problem several months ago with Cyrillic characters. Today we noticed it again with Romanian diacritics and Greek characters.
